detailing Tessa Jean Smith's experiences as she undergoes an operation to lengthen her right leg

June 25, 2011

Home Again!

We made it home again last night! Kathleen was a huge help in navigating the trip from the apartment to the airport while toting three weeks worth of luggage, two guitars, etc. Tessa did fine on the airplane ride home without any pain in her leg. The time really went by quickly now that we're on this side of it!
I added a few photos from her last day of therapy- she's posing here with her therapist Kym, who is the only one still remaining at Sinai from Tessa's first operation in 2004. The years gave been good to both of them!

Tessa also wanted to add this photo from the therapy room of EVERY DISNEY MOVIE EVER!!!

And finally, a pic from the plane ride home with Kathleen:

Physical therapy starts again in KC this week, but for now, a couple of days of well-deserved rest.

GO KATHLEEN!! Tessa Jean you are blessed with some pretty terrific friends. Thanks for getting my girl home and for helping my brother so very much. Welcome home Tessa!!! So glad you have that phase behind you. Rest up.
